  • Mass Metrology

    The Newly Defined Kilogram

    by S. V. Gupta ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    This second edition of Mass Metrology: The Newly Defined Kilogram has been thoroughly revised to reflect the recent redefinition of the kilogram in terms of Planck’s constant. The necessity of defining the kilogram in terms of physical constants was already underscored in the first edition. However, the kilogram can also be defined in terms of Avogadro’s number, using a collection of ions of heavy ... Read more

  • Three Great Tsunamis: Lisbon (1755), Sumatra-Andaman (2004) and Japan (2011)

    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Tsunamis are primarily caused by earthquakes. Under favourable geological conditions, when a large earthquake occurs below the sea bed and the resultant rupture causes a vertical displacement of the ocean bed, the entire column of water above it is displaced, causing a tsunami. In the ocean, tsunamis do not reach great heights but can travel at velocities of up to 1000 km/hour. As a tsunami ... Read more
